The pregnancy is irrelevant to the question of becoming emancipated.

What are some of the general rules on how to get emancipated in Minnesota?

  • The child must be a resident of Minnesota
  • The child has to be at least 16 years of age
  • The child must be living separate and apart from the parents or guardian
  • The child must be capable of supporting himself or herself financially and managing his or her own affairs
  • Each parent or guardian must consent (although there are certain exceptions)
  • Not a ward of the state

Just because a child becomes emancipated there are still certain responsibilities the child must take care of themselves:

  • Cannot drink alcohol until the legal age in that state
  • Must attend school
  • Cannot get married unless he/she has parents permission
  • Cannot vote until the age of 18
  • Cannot purchase cigarettes or alcohol
  • Cannot purchase or possess firearms

What are MN emancipation laws?

In Minnesota, a minor can be considered emancipated if they are at least 16 years old, living apart from their parents, financially self-sufficient, and capable of making their own decisions. Emancipation can be granted by a court or through a legal agreement between the minor and their parents. Once emancipated, the minor gains the rights and responsibilities of an adult.
